We show that every compact convex set in a Banach space X is an intersection of balls provided the cone generated by the set of all extreme points of the dual unit ball of X* is dense in X* in the topology of uniform convergence on compact sets in X. This allows us to renorm every Banach space with transfinite Schauder basis by a norm which shares the mentioned intersection property.
